Re: How Much Boost????
The 1255 lb of torque pull was with a 5" pulley on the blower, the 1188 pull, I used a 5.5".both used the 7.65 crank pulley. I wanted to do one pull with race gas and more timing, run it up to 7000 rpm but I ran out of time.

Re: How Much Boost????
Interesting, seems that at about 5000rpm the belt starts slipping. Which has more area under the curve? Because of the slippage problem, I would use a bigger pully and less boost and extend your rpm range. I would bet that you would be able to go faster with a bigger pully and no slippage.

Roller Cam w/ Johnson Racing lifters 8:71, 3% overdriven 6psi boost. 964HP and 924t lbs. https://scontent-lga3-1.xx.fbcdn.net...WA&oe=62397B7D

Boost pressure 5 psi Displacement 580" Heads Merlin 345 w/ 126 CC chambers. Cam: Lunati Hyd. Blower Cam (.571 - .580) the rest I'm not sure 8-71 Hampton Blower underdriven 5% 766 hp and 753 lbs. torque at 4500. I went with a conservative setup for longevity but I could always pump up the boost if I want more juice. :eek: |

Anybody know the story. It did end rather abruptly. Went back and listened again. Even with my deaf azz ears it sure sounds like something let lose. Sounded like top end though. |
525SC was a 7.5 compression 5.5psi engine running very rich I thought ??
My 600SC ran like a champ for 300hrs, I never saw over 5psi so maybe Mercury knows something . |
